Summary of α2β1, GM1, and N-acetylneuraminic acid usage for infection by human rotaviruses

Shown in references 8, 15, 18, 32, and 35. The extent of α2β1 usage is not affected by sialidase treatment of cells, as shown in this study.
Shown in this study and reference 31 for Wa. GM1 usage also was shown by STD NMR detection of a-GM1 binding by Wa VP8* (31) and RV-3 VP8* (this study). CE, clathrin-mediated endocytosis; ND, not determined.
Data are from references 11 to 13. DS-1 uses CE (12). RV-5 and DS-1 share the G2P1B serotype, differing in VP8* sequence at amino acid positions 82, 89, and 160, so RV-5 also may enter cells by CE.
Shown in this study and reference 31.
